Courageous - Dreadful Shadows

Your wrinkled hands reveal the time

You can’t stop anymore

The expression of you eyes is still courageous

Your lips are pale, your skin is white

I thought you’d never fall

You’re lying motionless in bed

Courageous inside

Flies dance around the same old lie

I’m giving up your shape

Oh, I was startled by the words

You breathed in your despair

You’ve lost your trust in your own world — in living

In times when you were young and strong

You could embrace the world

You’ve been so fearless and so sure

Courageous inside

Flies dance around the same old lie

I’m giving up your shape

«But our dreaming was too far beyond reality

Another time we had to see — we are creeping worms in space

Too many disappointments made me disintegrate

I’m losing hold, losing control — and my world collapsed»

It seemed that life came back to you

Your eyes were blazing bright

Immortal power seized your body

I left you when you fell asleep

You wanted to be alone

And now I’m sitting next to you

You’re still courageous inside

Flies dance around the same old lie

I’m giving up your shape

«Sometimes I’m burning in a fire of lies and agony

These waves will never subside and my world will disappear

I don’t believe in human souls, I had to bury warmth

In endless fights against myself my world collapsed»
